The department Management of Artworks Visual Artists Regulation (BKB) of the Municipal Museum Service was established in 1972 on the initiative of the then director of the Municipal Museum E. de Wilde. The various departments of the museum could no longer handle the processing of the greatly increased number of artworks from the Visual Artists Regulation (BKR, also called the "Contraprestatie").
C. van den Akker, retired inspector of municipal art collections at the Art Inventory Department of the Municipal Museums Service, was charged with the initial design of the new department.
This would place the works from around 1975. If this is approximately correct, the children portrayed would now be around 55-60 years old.
The boy with ball has some spots and one work has a crack in the plexiglass. Please look at the photos, they are part of the description.
The total of 8 works makes it a heavy whole. Therefore pick up / delivery in consultation.
